Results Amongst the 465 included participants, mosquitoes showed a clear fondness for those who drank beer over those who abstained from the liquid gold (Fold Change 1.35, 95% CI 1.12–1.63, PFDR<0.001). Attraction was also contagious: participants that successfully lured a fellow human into their tent the previous night also proved more enticing to mosquitoes (FC 1.34, 95% CI 1.14–1.58, PFDR=0.002). Meanwhile, skipping the morning showering routine and using sunscreen reduced mosquito attraction (FC 0.52, 95% 0.38-0.70, PFDR<0.001). Streptococci were more abundant on the skin of highly attractive individuals (Puncorrected=0.017), and the overall abundance of malodour associated bacteria was high – possibly reflecting the container’s smell.
Reading that paragraph makes me feel like I’m actually there in the mud at Glastonbury.

Little bastards ❤️ my GF, she drinks Bud Light. They don’t seem to bother me, I drink NEIPA. Wonder if that makes the difference for us? Hmmm.
